My name's Aurora. Aurora Russo.
And for a long time, I thought pain was normal.
That love came with bruises.
Then they happened- strangers who are my brothers.

Loud. Cold. Angry.

Yet somehow... they saved me.

Not all at once. Not perfectly.
But piece by piece, they pulled me out of the dark.
This is the story of before them, and after.
Of everything I lost.

And everything I'm still trying to find.


Nikita Gill once said, "The saddest word in the whole wide world is the word almost."

Almost-the word that's followed Aurora like a shadow my whole life.
She almost felt safe.
She almost had a real family.
She almost escaped the pain.
She almost gave up.

After years of silent suffering at the hands of those meant to protect her, she's finally free. With the sudden deaths of her abusive adoptive parents, she's shipped off to live with the only blood she has left: 7 older brothers she doesn't remember-hardened by violence, secrets, and a name feared in the underworld. The Russo Family.

What she doesn't know? They're part of the mafia.
What they don't know? How to love her.

But blood is blood-even in the dark.

Will they learn to love their sister, or will she be just another casualty in their broken world?

Cameron Cole has a plan. After yet another relationship ends because of certain shortcomings-literally-Cameron decides it's time to swear off dating and focus her energy into her junior year at the University of Charlotte. There's an internship up for grabs and there's no way she's letting that slip through her fingers. But then she's goes and makes one impulsive mistake that changes everything. Wesley Reed has it all. As the golden boy of the Charlotte Colts football team, he's got the talent, the looks, and a future so bright it's practically blinding. Girls throw themselves at him, professors let things slide, and the world bends to his will. But when a required freshmen paper threatens his eligibility, the two are brought together in a sick twist of academic fate. Cameron can't get him out of her head and Wesley isn't making it any easier with his cocky smirk and insistent charm. Their arrangement teeters on the edge of disaster as unresolved tension and late-night study sessions give way to a steamy, no-strings-attached deal. But in the game of love and lust, someone always has to loose-and the stakes have never been higher.

Aurora's life had always been about survival, each day a quiet battle against fear and pain. When her stepfather was finally arrested, she thought the fight was over. But leaving one dangerous world meant stepping into another-one she didn't fully understand. Now, she's living with seven older brothers she barely knows, their lives a tangle of secrets and shadows they never speak of. Their house is loud, protective, and filled with rules she's afraid to break. For Aurora, it's a new kind of survival. For her brothers, it's a chance to keep her safe-no matter what it takes.
